*rummages through the recipe file* Ah-hah! Broiled sweet young newbie w/garlic roast potatoes. MMMMMMM.

Welcome aboard. Learn, find useful info even in "negative" comments, don't worry about low scores, enjoy high scores, and shoot what you like regardless of what scores well here. Oh, and know that shots in the mid-5s regularly sell for $$$.

Shots in the mid-5s sell for $$$?! You're not pulling legs here, are you, Jeffrey?

Hey! Doesn't the Terms of Use prohibit girding loins in front of newbies!!!!

Welcome to DPC avalanche1030. Don't worry about Slippy and Art. They're relatively harmless. Heck Slippy is from Canada. When have you ever encountered a dangerous or unfriendly person from Canada?

Okay, I was wrong on my own prints - I guess the ones I've sold either weren't in challenges or just broke 6, like 6.0 or 6.1. But I know I've heard of others selling prints of shots that weren't in the upper reaches of the scores.

It also depends on what you consider $$$. I just sold a bunch of lava shot prints for $50 over the production cost, though. Since I'd pay people to hang my photos on their walls, them paying me for the privelege feels like $$$. :)

Well, I know I've seen prints by a certain chess player listed on DPPrints...so if they'll accept his stuffs, surely some of mine will pass muster too!
